Impression Obsession DT Challenge: Ocean Breeze

The Impression Obsession team's challenge today is to create a project in a beach theme.

I watercolored this sweet image (Jill) with watercolor markers... I'm playing with two different brands of real-brush markers just for fun - I'll share more info soon! I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens and Akashiya Sai markers with a couple of different techniques.

The background panel was done with Hydrus watercolors on Shizen paper. In the center of my bow is a starfish from the Mini Shell die set, and the frame is a new nested frame die that can be found HERE.
